animals since little. He was a
quite young man when he
married, luckily his wife loved
animals too so they used to
have a house full of animals,
like birds, fishs , a dog , a
chicken and a cat.
The cat was called Pluto, it
was black, beautiful and a
large one.
And they also had a beautiful
and special relantionship.
 The days went by and his
disease became worse to the
point of, one morning ,
founded a rope, tied it round
of Pluto's neck, hanging it and
letting the cat there to die. At
the same day there was a fire,
that destroyed the whole
house, except one part of it,
so they reuse these and then,
they rebuild their house.
One day him and his wife
needed something in the
cellar, so they went,
while him was walking
downstairs the cat came in
the middles of his legs. It
made him furious that with
the axe, there was in his
hands he'd kill it if wasn't
from his wife. Still with wrath
in his eyes, he killed her
by hitting her head.
